The retreat of the Japanese invaders was sealed.

Behind it was constant artillery fire. Ahead is a hail of bullets.

Between two fires.

The shells fell, killing the Japanese invaders continuously.

If this continues, it is only a matter of time before all the Japanese invaders will perish.

They were pinned down in the valley in front of the stronghold, flanked on either side by mountain beams. The back road was cut off again. It can be completely shattered with cannonballs alone.

However, the captain of the Japanese Brigade quickly adjusted his deployment.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

He ordered the troops to attack forward.

The quality of the Japanese soldiers was indeed high. Received a heavy blow, and did not collapse.

Each squadron and each squad quickly organized an attack team.

One by one, the Japanese invaders rushed forward with guns and shouts.

"Hit!"

"Hit!"

Zhang Chu shouted repeatedly.

All weapons are ready to fire. You can fight as much as you want.

The howitzers were responsible for bombarding the Japanese at the rear.

Mortars were responsible for bombarding the Japanese soldiers charged.

Other weapons, as long as they are aimed at the Japanese invaders, can be released.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

In the dense artillery fire, the Japanese invaders kept falling.

However, the other Japanese invaders continued to rush upward. It was actually successful in approaching within two or three hundred meters.

Some Japanese criminals set up grenadiers. Bombardment of the stronghold began.

At the same time, the infantry artillery of the Japanese invaders was also erected. Start fighting back.

"Boom ......"

"Boom ......"

Intermittently, shells landed inside the stronghold.

Although there were not many casualties. But it also shows that the Japanese are indeed not muddy. In such a desperate situation, they can fight back.

"There are howitzers on the dirt eight roads!"

"Request urgent tactical guidance!"

"There are howitzers on the dirt eight roads!"

"Request urgent tactical guidance!"

Through the radio, the Japanese also succeeded in transmitting the message.

Garrisoned in Datong was the Japanese 26th Division. The commander of the division was called Kuroda Shigetoku. He was discussing the battle with the commander of the cavalry division, Takashi Takamori.

"Nani?"

"There are howitzers on the dirt eight roads?"

"How is that possible?"

After receiving the report from the chief of staff, Shigetoku Kuroda was in disbelief.

The Eagle Takamori next to him also feels incredible.

Tubalu's capture of the Yanzigang stronghold had already surprised them very much. Howitzers were actually dispatched?

Uncanny......

How did the howitzer come about?

Falling from the sky?

That's howitzers!

It's not your average mountain artillery! Even if it's a mountain cannon, there are not many of them on the dirt road!

"That's exactly what the Tsuno Brigade reported."

"Order the Fujii Brigade to help verify."

Kuroda still wasn't convinced.

If you want to say that there are mountain cannons on Tubalu, it may be acceptable.

Howitzers are excessive.

Most of them are earthen weapons of the Dirt Eight Road.

"Fujii's brigade has not yet arrived at the Swallow Gang stronghold."

"Order them to move quickly."

"Yes!"

The chief of staff went out to give orders.

Kuroda frowned. It doesn't feel that simple.

Since Tubalu was able to conquer the Yanzigang stronghold, it showed that it still had a certain strength. Able to blow up so many turrets......

Could it be that there are really howitzers on the Dirt Eighth Road?

"Kuroda-kun, there are really howitzers on the Dirthachi Road to the south." Eagle Takamori friendly reminder.

"I see." Kuroda Shigetoku did not dare to slack off.

I don't know what method was really used by the Dirt Eighth Road to pull the howitzer from the south.

According to private information that is not public, it is said that Tubalu also used howitzers to bombard Taiyuan. The shell exploded right in Yoshio Shinozuka's headquarters.

This is a big scandal. Therefore, discussion was strictly forbidden within the Japanese army. Not even a lieutenant general.

Privately, though, they still know the news.

The First Army is really not going to work.

It is completely impossible to suppress the dirt eight roads. The dirt eight roads are getting stronger and stronger.

At Cangyunling, the Japanese lost three wings in a row. Almost tens of thousands of people were wiped out.

On the side of Ping'an County, the Japanese army lost several thousand more men. His small ad hoc division could not withstand such repeated blows.

So......

It is necessary to wipe out the earth with lightning speed.

"Someone!"

"Hello!"

"Please come to Machoo Kumagawa!"

"Yes!"

Shigetoku Kuroda decided to send the Kumagawa Macho Wing to attack and advance westward at once.

The 26th Division is a three-wing division. There are no brigades. Because the garrison area is relatively large, there is only one wing of mobile strength.

The most taboo thing to do in a war is the tactic of adding fuel. So, Shigetoku Kuroda threw himself directly into a wing.

Eagle Takamori is also willing to help. An order was given to dispatch the Grass Pheasant Cavalry Brigade.

He was also very averse to fueling tactics.

He felt that Yoshio Shinozuka had made the mistake of adding fuel to the tactics.

Send a little troops here, a little there. Not much anywhere. As a result, it was broken by each of the eight roads of earth.

As a result, a unit, a wing of the funeral.

So, such a mistake, they will never make it again. We must use all our strength to deal with the dirt eight roads.

So, a cavalry brigade. About three thousand people. An infantry wing. It was also about three thousand people. Mighty to kill the Yanzigang stronghold.

The movement of the Japanese invaders was so big, of course, the intelligence system of our party and our army knew about it immediately.

All kinds of information are reported immediately.

"What does the Japanese want to do?"

"Is it going to launch a new round of sweeps?"

"But if you sweep, why do you concentrate all your forces all the way?"

The head of the 120th Division was puzzled.

The Yanzigang stronghold has been taken, and they don't know it yet!

In the days when there was no radio, all information had to be transmitted manually, and the speed was very slow.

For the sake of safety, the head of the division headquarters ordered the nearby troops to be on strict alert.

"Order the Teaching Brigade to join the battlefield!"

"Order the garrison brigade to join the battlefield!"

The division commander here is also experienced in battle, and he also directly threw heavy troops.

At the same time, people were sent to reconnoiter in the direction of Yanzigang.

Unconsciously, the northwest of Jin will stir up the wind and rain again.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

Zhang Chu killed two Japanese criminals from a distance.

The two Japanese invaders actually tried to climb the mountain ridge on the north side, and then condescendingly threatened the stronghold.

It's a pity that they were killed by Zhang Chu first.

Want to climb a mountain?

Dream on!

Even if you climb to the mountain beam, you can't threaten the Yanzigang stronghold.

The location of this stronghold was chosen by the Japanese invaders themselves. How could such a low-level mistake be made? Surely it won't be threatened by the mountain beams on both sides!

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

Chu Yunfei also killed two Japanese criminals.

Zhang Chu squinted at each other.

Like you're going to compete with yourself? Yes. You are the head of the regiment. You win.

But Chu Yunfei didn't react.

He didn't want to compete with Zhang Chu. He just wanted to shoot the Japanese invaders.

In the past two or three years, although Chu Yunfei is the head of the regiment. But only a handful of Japanese criminals were killed.

Although there are many reasons. However, his heart is actually very aggrieved.

As a Chinese soldier, he can't kill devils happily. It's too uncomfortable.

Now I finally have the opportunity to fight to my heart's content, and I don't need to have any scruples, so naturally I won't miss any opportunity to shoot the Japanese criminals.

Captain of the Japanese squad? One shot to take it off!

The Japanese Kou Cao Chang? One shot to take it off!

Captain of the Japanese Army? One shot to take it off!

Heavy? One shot to take it off!

Grenadier canisters? One shot to take it off!

Chu Yunfei himself didn't know how many Japanese soldiers he had shot.

All in all, it feels like I've never felt so enjoyable.

Seriously, at this moment, he doesn't want to go back to the 358th Regiment at all.

It's not fun to be the head of the regiment. It's better to be an ordinary soldier here.

Joining the Eighth Route Army is exempt.

But it is possible to fight with the Eighth Route Army. Kill devils all the time! Until you kill them all!

"Give!"

Zhang Chu handed over a cloth bag.

Inside were all 7.62mm Mosin Nagant rifle bullets. A hundred rounds in total.

Bulk.

Wronged Commander Chu. Manpower is tight right now. There's no one to help you press the magazine. You had to do it yourself.

Chu Yunfei didn't care.

Do it yourself, do it yourself. He also pressed the magazine quickly.

First, press the bullet into the bridge magazine. Then press into the magazine.

Press three magazines in a row.

Then the magazine was changed to the SVT-40 semi-automatic rifle.

Keep shooting.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

Kill another Japanese criminal.

The distance is a bit far. About 700 meters or so.

To be on the safe side, Chu Yunfei fired two shots in a row. Successfully take out the Japanese invaders.

Glad.

Seven hundred meters away......

The maximum range of the devil's grenadier is only 700 meters. But I hit them all with my rifle.

Go on.

Still aiming at a target 700 meters away.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

It was still two shots fired in a row.

Moments later, the subject collapsed limply. Apparently hit again.

In this way, Chu Yunfei was even more happy.

A deep sense of accomplishment welled up.

So they specifically looked for a target of six or seven hundred meters, and then killed it.

Zhang Chu saw. Nodding in satisfaction.

Captain Chu's marksmanship is indeed excellent. Now it's finally not a waste. He has a gun, at least one platoon against others!

Suddenly......

Eyes flashed.

But I saw a figure flickering on the mountain beam in the distance.

Hey?

Who?

Actually climbed onto the mountain beam?
